Welcome
CJHR – 98.7 FM is the Ottawa Valley’s first, non-profit; community owned and operated full-powered volunteer-run, English-language radio station.
The 13,000 – Watt broadcast signal covers the majority of the Ottawa Valley, while the “world” is served via the INTERNET. Studios are located just East of the Town of Renfrew at 3009 Burnstown Road. The station offers the “traditional” sounds of the country, bluegrass, fiddle and “Valley” music, with a self-imposed mandate to focus programming on “Canadian Content”, with the aim of promoting Canadian Talent as much as possible. The station utilizes turntables and tape decks that enable the playing of music not yet available on newer recording media! The station features Gospel, Celtic, Polish, Regional Canadian, such as “Down East” and “Newfy” music as well as Valley Stories & Tales, Old-Time Radio shows, Agriculture, Seniors and Student Programming to name a few.
CJHR, like any community project, will survive and flourish only with community involvement and support. It is up to the public as individuals, businesses, municipalities, organizations, community groups and corporations to mold the station into the entity you wish it to be – that is, a “refection” of the unique community in which you reside.
This is YOUR radio station!
The “people’s Voice” of the Ottawa Valley
